24 going on 44...

Well, in case many of you don't know our ward split a couple of weeks ago. This means there has been a lot of restructuring and new callings given. Well, Adam and I received an [expected] phone call on Saturday. We had a meeting with a member of the bishopic on Sunday. With all the recent changes in the ward, we were of course anticipating callings. A few ran through my head...young womens, primary, sunday school, etc...but, the one I received had never crossed my mind! Second Counselor in the Relief Society Presidency. Needless to say I immediately felt inadequate. By the end of sacrament, with much effort, I changed the feeling of inadequacy to an overwhelming feeling of humbleness. I know, even with my shortcomings, that if I can strive keep the Spirit of the Lord in my home at all times I will be able to accomplish the things necessary in my new calling. I am so thankful Heavenly Father knows us better than we know ourselves. I am so excited to serve in the Relief Society and to get to know so many new sisters! My ward is full or wonderful people, whom I have already learned so much from. This last 7 months has been the first time I have been able to go to Relief Society (I was always in Young Women's) and I have really begun to love and appreciate it. I know I will spend a lot of time in the next coming months on my knees.
